Famous quotes containing the words tiger and/or cubs:
“Truly men hate the truth; they’d liefer
Meet a tiger on the road.
Therefore the poets honey their truth with lying; but religion-
Vendors and political men
Pour from the barrel, new lies on the old,”
—Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
“An unlicked bear”
—Trans. by Johanna Prins.
